Education Program Graduate Success

Youth4Business is excited to share news about Junie, a recent graduate of the business education program in Les Cayes. Junie attends St Paul, a private school in the rural suburb of Torbek. She worked very hard during the school program and at the end of the school year, presented an excellent business plan for her cosmetic business.

Coicy, our program director, evaluated the plan and decided that she would be able to receive a microfinance loan. Junie sells creams, soaps, toothpaste and many other small items. She goes to school in the morning, finishes her homework, and then works on her business in the afternoon. During vacations and free time she visits the free market to sell her products.

Youth4Business celebrates her success and looks forward to many young students following in Junie’s footsteps!
